    Transfer Denied

    This. Even if you hate Target, the place is good for seasonal and part time work, and you never know when you might want some extra cash for a place that will rehire you in a heartbeat during the busy season. Although, they have rehired people who have left on horrible terms before too. I know 2...

    Is Being A TL/Supervisor The Same Everywhere?

    Yeah, that kind of made me feel good about the position. I could learn the ropes and possibly get additional training. Yeah, it really did. I mean, I felt like I really let my previous team down, and I was always reminded that I was letting the team down which just brought my self esteem to an...

    Is Being A TL/Supervisor The Same Everywhere?

    So, as some of you know, I had a poor TL experience at spot. I couldn't meet the expectations of he ETLs and it eventually forced me to resign. I had another interview last week for a supervisor at a sports store. It was originally just for a PT salesfloor TM spot, but when the store manager saw...

    Is Being TL Stressful?

    True! When did you become TL for flex? Something you said just reminded me of someone I worked with. When you said there was a case of performancing out a TL due to burn out. That was me at my store, and the TL that took over is a good guy that I've worked with since I started. I don't know, I...

    Stepping down as a leader

    I've seen only 2 TLs demote themselves at the store I was at. They pretty much had to quit and reapply. They wouldn't let them simply just demote.

    Is Being TL Stressful?

    Haha, you remind me of someone I used to work with. He was also a market TL who lead the backroom team as a captain and went on LOA for a year for another job before coming back.

    Is Being TL Stressful?

    Wow! Your SD sounded like a nightmare, and I'm glad she's out of the job now. I'm sorry that you had to go through all that crap though. My TL was a good person. I talked to her team and they told me that she was a good leader but, easy to take advantage of. Which is weird because, she did end...

    Is Being TL Stressful?

    I found out recently that things in my store are a bit different. You are not allowed to demote yourself. Your only option is to quit and reapply, and if they don't like you, you will not get rehired. Some TLs have tried before, and they were faced with either quitting and risk becoming...

    Leadership And Training

    I had to quit just a week or 2 afterwards due to an unfortunate situation with my family. I reapplied as a team member again at a different store, so I didn't get to really be a lead. Kind of looks like I dodged a big bullet.

    Leadership And Training

    Yeah, that sounds terrible. From what I have noticed in the last few weeks, the ETLs in my store don't seem to be great at communicating or training. I wonder if the TL who quit had been going through something similar. No proper training, and then getting scolded for not doing the job right. I...

    Leadership And Training

    I witnessed something today during my only shift of the week (ahhh, first quarter is finally here). A TL today was being coached on something bizarre. It had to do with something about how he didn't know how to do something, and the poor guy responds, "well, it would have helped if somebody...

    Is Being TL Stressful?

    Sounds rough being an actual TL. I've been given TL duties in the past and have been told I have leadership qualities in me, which made me excited about being a TL sometime in the future, but, I don't think I want it. Especially after seeing what some of you either went through or are currently...

    Is Being TL Stressful?

    I don't see why they would though. That's rough. I like to think I have pretty thick skin but, if i had to walk into that every day, I would probably explode.

    Is Being TL Stressful?

    I think the TL gave up today. I started my shift before her and got to overhear her huddle today in the morning. She at some point sighed and just told the team, "do whatever you want." I barely heard her on the walkie to check on her team today. I'm kind of worried if maybe she is bringing...

    Is Being TL Stressful?

    There is a team lead at my store who is pretty much finished with the job. She's been really negative these last few days and has told me that she is done being held accountable for other people's actions and mistakes. She's a really hard worker, I see her sweating and hauling ass all the time...
